POISON AND CRIME,
An Apparent Epidemic Of Cussedness
just Now.

An Apparent Epidemic Of Cusscdness
just Now.
Especial Correspondenee.l
NEW YORK, May 10.
Once more we are in an epidemic of peculiar
crimes. The newspai ers are spotted all over
with accounts of unusual offenses against
women and children, of assaults that seem to
be utterly without motive, and of murders
and maimings not only causeless but actually
hindrances to the objects of the perpetrators.
There is no more crime than there was few
years ago, perhaps, but the crime is so pecu
liar and unnatural in its character. Another
very noticeable feature of this class of crimes
is that they do not occur in the rude or new
sections; they are almost always in those com
murities that boast of the highest culture and
in the most thickly populated states. There
is every year more marked difference be-
tween the crime of the south and west and
that OF the far north and east The south
shoots man i'll sudden heat: the west pounds
him to death or stabs him in anger or
drunkenness; the east poisons him or pushes
him from boat in the night, or slyly stabs
him for purposes Of robbery. In the south
you ere sometimes in danger from the man
you drink or argue with; in the west from the
man YOU ride or gamble with; but in the east
the destruction "walketh in darkness The
crime of the south is more bloody and sen
sational; but that Of the east, being the work
OF professionals" as rule, is more sneaknp
and insidious. For a test, look over the Ii
Of all the cruelties perpetrated on women at,
children this year-how very few of them oc
Cured south of the Ohio or west of the Missis

Is there any connection between these pe-
culiar crimes and the fact that so much O
our food and drink is adulteratedl Some 0
our philosophers think there is. They think
they can trace connection between bad
beer, bad whisky, bad bread, adulterattd
sugar or other unnatural food and unnatural
crimes. And it is a melancholy truth that
this Is the age of aduIteration And the
United States is confessedly the worst country
IN Cmlstendom for this crime. True, the
sdulterant mixture is in most cases not a
poison, but neither Is it food: it is an alien
substance, and no matter how neutral in
character, 1t must overload and disorder the
digestive organs. And the misery of it is that
nearly all the adulterated foods are such as
the poor, and especially the ignorant and
children buy We are told nv men who
should know that in many of the cheap sbons
not one article in five is what it pretends to
be. Asking one rather honest friend who

WASHINGTON, June 2S. The secretary
OF the interior to-day decided adversely
to the claim of the state of Kansas under
the act of Jan. 29, 1881, admitting her
into the Union, to 1853, 720, being 5 per
cent of the net proceeds of the sale OF GER
tain lands made between July |, 1884. and
June 3, 1885, heretofore reserved for the
Cherokee. Kansas, Miami and Usage
tribes. The secretary in this decision
oyerruled the former action of the interior
department whereby similar accounts az.
gregating something over half a million
dollars have been certified to and paid to
the state by the treasury every year since
1861. 1t is estimated that the state of
Kansas will probably apply to the United
States supreme court for a mandamus to
compel the commissioner general OF the
land Office to certify the claim to the first
comptroller of the treasury for payment,
which will raise the question of the rights
OF states in the premises. This decision
will affect all states admitted into the
Union since 1857 having Indian lands
An order was issued from the war de-
partment to day by direction of the presi.
dent, restoring 10 the army Maj. Benja.
min X. Runkle, retired, who was dropped
or a judgment of the court of claims.
This judgment was reversed by the United
States supreme court, May 81. He will
be borne upon the rolls as never having
been legally separated from the army.

The Fire at MarshheId.

MILWAUKEE, June 2S.-It is now esti-
mated that the loss resulting from the de-
struction of the city of Mansfield will not
be less than So, 900, 900 and may be nearly
81. 900 900. The heaviest loser is the
Upham Manufacturing company. whose
loss is a~pproximated at $500, 900. Twelve
solid blocks OF stores were destroyed. A
dispatch tonight says that the fire burned
until an early hour this morning and that
but one house remained unscathed. Half
OF the population is still there, but is suf-
fering for want of clothes. Supplies have
been sent from ~neighboring towns that
answered the purpose temporarily, but
Mayor Upham telegraphs that more pro-
visions must be sent at once or the people
will suffer The remaining inhabitants
are camping in the woods tonight.
Owing to the poor facilities for COM
m%unicatlng by wires, details are coming
in but slowly. 1t appears that when the
fire started there was a high wind and
the flames were carried with remarkable
rapidity, seeming almost to leap from
house to house. Twelve buildings were
blown up with dynamite in the vain effort
to check the flames. Conductor Grayson,
who brought a sleeper from st. Paul on
the Central line this morning, said the
only thing to be seen at Marshfield from
where the depot used to stand was one
house and an expanse of blackened ruins,
with here and there the remnants of a
smoke stack and some warped and twist
ed machinery to show where the mill had
stood. He describes the scene as one of
awful desolation, hardly relieved by the
presence of human beings, as everybody
had left or was leaving as fast as possible.
Yesterday afternoon most of the well
to do people left for Chippewa Falls, and
this morning two carloads of homeless
working people were brought as far as
Stevens Point, the railway company car
rying them free. Grayson described them
as a sorry looking crowd.

A man named Purcell visited Jerry
Graham saloon the other night, and
after filling himself with the variety Of
bug Juice" dispensed at that resort. re-
tired to an alley in the neighborhood and
endeavored to sleep off the effects of the
shock. Part of Purcell's raiment con
sisted of a new pair of overalls, in the
pockets of which he carried three checks,
representing $2l, $l2, and S. respect,
lively, and about $40 in cash. When he
awoke he discovered that while reclining
in the Supplying embraces of the goddess
of slumber some person or persons had
relieved him of his o~veralls and contents.
No one has yet been arrested in connec-
ton with the occurrence.
